The purpose is twofold: ergonomics and not invalidating existing IDL. Yes, we could force people to scatter `_` (what I assume was meant above but got munged by githubs markdown parser) about, but most IDL authors don't even know about that feature and it looks ugly. And when new keywords get added, it's best if existing argument name uses don't become invalid and have to be modified to include `_`. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
